Mammalian TRP Channels as Molecular Targets (Novartis Foundation Symposia)

This book brings together contributions from key investigators in the area of Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channel structure and function.  It covers the structure, function and regulation of mammalian TRP channels and mechanisms of signal transduction.  The discussions indicate research that would improve understanding of the role of TRP channels in normal cellular physiology, the involvement of TRP channels in disease states and their potential use as molecular targets for novel therapeutic agents.
